Audio Research Reference 5 Preamp
The model number 4 seldom appears in hi-end audio products, at least not from companies that want to sell any of those products in Asian countries. The number 4 represents bad luck. . .

Wadia 781
Chris, I know the 781 quite well...have lived with one for a couple months now and am also quite familiar with it's design from technical standpoint. It's a clearly obvious step . . .

Balanced usage with Opus 21
FYI, a no cost option with the GNSC mods to the Opus 21 are to have us bypass the volume control to the RCA outputs which negates the need to use a cable that converts DIN to RCA. . . .

CAT JL-3 Sig Mk2s direct from Wadia 781i?
I think it's important to clarify the reason that Wadia allows for higher output level settings than the CD standard. They want their DAC's and CD players to be able to feed a very. . .

Wadia 631 grainy and "dirty" sounding vs ML 390s
Dbk, just FYI ...There is no model from Wadia called the 631. There is an 861, there was a 301...and many other players over the years but never a 631. Are you referring to the 861. . .
